For Container it is already possible, although not through the API.
You already can set the root password from the GUI at the container creation time.
Out of curiosity why the need to change it more often from the outside?
all the other Platform has this possibility to change the root password outside the CT .
SolusVm , Vmware ....
It doesn't exist in VMware. As you know, VMware doesn't do containers either....Which VMware product do you refer here exactly? I am asking because I do not know this feature in vSphere esxi.

what i know we can change linux vm wtih the vcloud api .
I am curious, what vcloud API url is that?
hello im trying to achieve something similar with pyproxmox and whmcs as im currently testing virtualizor - it works and there are lots of interesting features but unfortunately I dont feel safe using them. I want answers from their support but they constantly ask me for root passwords for the vm hosts which is okay but i want to know what is going on under the hood and not just: its fixed. thanks. Also i've been testing proxmox from quite some times and VMA backup tool is far superior than what they provide, and till this point it didnt let me down. so anyway there are 2 key features with virtualior i also want to copy somehow - the root pasword change as you requested and also they have these recipe templates which are basically custom bash scripts you can prepare for the client before he creates his VM (works for openvz, and even kvm and xen) but i think the key there is that they provide custom repository with ISOs of all common linux distributions and I guess they injected something there which will make the appliance virtualizor compatible so it can recieve commands and scripts from it, while proxmox is much more general-purpouse. I'm not sure if it will be technically possible to achieve this with regular isos especially on kvm. still maybe the proxmox gurus could have some ideas herevirtualizor also has this feature .
